It’s very bizarre. The idea that we will accept such a thin response to something like this is so crazy.
And the email says they disclosed my email address. Their agent said it was email or name first, then changed that to email, or email and name...

It’s genuine. The email arrived with me tonight also. Headers checked out ok.
Email read exactly as you say, but the story is actually that they leaked email or email and name. Of course nobody is gonna say how, when, volume of customers affected etc. They don’t seem to know the scale or exactly what happened in Customer Service.
